Abstract

PURPOSE:To surely stop an input after a caution and to suppress a wasteful dictionary consulting work by executing the caution by name by means of a voice when a misinput (Roman letters miswriting) is generated. CONSTITUTION:A user registering means inputs the data of names to specify a user from, for example, a keyboard beforehand, and the data are stored into a first memory 61. On the other hand, a second memory 64 stores prescribed message data to caution a misoperation by the user, etc. A voice generating means 8 converts character data to the voice and outputs it when a series of the character data are inputted. An error detecting means detects the misinput at the time of the data input of document information, for example, as a word processor. An error cautioning means synthesizes the data of the first and second memories 61 and 64 and inputs them to the voice generating means 8 by that the error detecting means detects the error. Thus, a caution message is outputted in specifying the name of the user, and the user can be clearly identify the caution to himself.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a character processing device, and particularly to information processing for inputting document information such as characters and figures from a keyboard etc. and outputting it to a display device, a recording device, etc. The present invention relates to a character processing device that performs.

[Prior Art] A typical device of this type is a word processor. In a word processor, for example, you can write roman characters from the keyboard.
minsyusyuginokakuri tsug
aJyuuyoudearu. If you enter °°, it will be converted to kanji mixed with kana and displayed as ``Establishing democracy is important.'' Now, at this time, I accidentally typed the adjacent keys ``s'' and ``w'' on the keyboard by mistake, and they were originally ''.
Instead of typing “m1nsyu”, type “minwyu”.
Suppose you typed

Previously, when you typed "u" in the above character group, "
It was recognized that there was an error in the Roman alphabet in the input section of ``w y u'', and a beep sound was sounded to alert the user.However, today word processors have become widespread, and they cannot be used in small rooms. In many cases, multiple word processors are installed close to each other.When using the word processor in such a location, even if a warning sound is generated, it is difficult to tell whether the warning sound is coming from your own word processor or not, so you may have to continue using the key manually. There was a drawback.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention eliminates each of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and its purpose is to provide a character processing device in which a warning to the user is clearly identified. It is about providing.

[Means for solving the problems] In order to achieve the above object, the character processing device of the present invention has the following features:
A user registration means for inputting data identifying the user in advance and storing it in a first memory, a second memory for storing predetermined message data, and a voice for outputting a series of character data as voice. a generating means; an error detecting means for detecting an error during data input of document information; and when the error detecting means detects an error, the data in the first memory and the second memory are combined and the The outline of the system is to include error warning means for inputting to the sound generation means.

[Operations] In such a configuration, the user registration means allows data on a name that specifies the user to be entered in advance from, for example, a keyboard, and stores the data in the first memory.

On the other hand, the second memory stores predetermined message data such as warnings of operational errors by the user. Further, when a series of character data is input to the voice generating means, the voice generating means converts the character data into voice and outputs the voice. The error detection means detects human error when inputting data of document information, for example, as a word processor. When the error detection means detects an error, the error warning means synthesizes the data in the first memory and the second memory and inputs the synthesized data to the sound generation means. This allows a warning message to be issued by specifying the user's name, so that the user can clearly identify the warning sent to him/her.

[Description of Embodiments] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a word processor according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a CPU, which performs, for example, Romaji-kana conversion and kana-kanji conversion processing, as well as controlling the entire word processor. 2 is ROM
It stores, for example, the control program shown in FIG. 2, which is executed by the CPUI. 3 is a CR7 display device (CRT), which displays document information etc. that have been converted into kanji mixed with kana. 4 is a disk device, which stores conversion dictionaries for romaji-kana conversion and kana-kanji conversion, and the like. A keyboard (KBD) 5 is used to input the user's name (for example, the pronunciation of the name in Roman letters) before using the device, and to input the pronunciation of document information in Roman letters while using the device. 6 is a RAM, and the RAM 6 includes a user name registration section 61 that stores the user's name, a key human power buffer 62 that temporarily stores key human power data, and temporarily stores data obtained by converting the key human power data into kana. It is provided with storage areas such as an input pronunciation storage buffer 63 and a warning message area 64 that stores certain warning messages. 7 is a printer (PRN) that records document information converted into kanji mixed with kana. 8 is a voice generation circuit (VG
), for example, when inputting the Roman code data of the pronunciation of a message, it generates a series of audio signals corresponding to the input. 9 is a speaker, which outputs audio according to the audio signal. 10 is a common bus for cpUl.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of the word processing procedure of the embodiment. Although not shown, before starting the process shown in FIG. 2, the operator (user) is required to enter the pronunciation of the name in Roman letters, and the character string is stored in the user name registration section 61 of the RAM 6. I'll keep it. In advance, for example, the power of the device
This is the case when the initial menu is selected at N time, or when a word processor program is loaded and execution is started.

In FIG. 2, in step S1, character (Roman alphabet) data from the KBD 5 is stored in the key manual buffer 62. In step S2, the contents of the key manual buffer 62 are converted into Roman characters and kana characters.

For example, when the Roman character input string "mi" is recognized, it is converted to "mi". In step S3, it is determined whether or not it is a punctuation mark, and if it is a punctuation mark, the process proceeds to step S4, where the kana information in the manual reading kana memory buffer 63 is converted into kanji with kana mixed in it, and R
It is temporarily stored in a predetermined area of AM6 and displayed on CRT3. If it is not a punctuation mark, the process proceeds to step S5, and it is checked whether or not there has been a failure in Romaji-kana conversion. If there is no failure, the process proceeds to step S6, and the converted kana information is stored in the input kana storage buffer 63. If there is a failure, the process proceeds to step S7, and a warning voice calling out the name is generated. Specifically, when the user inputs the Roman character string "m1nsyu" manually, "minwyu" is converted to "min" in step S2, but "wy" is input.
At the time when "u" is input, there is no corresponding kana in the dictionary.

Furthermore, since there is no punctuation mark in step S3, step S5
In this case, it is determined that the kana conversion has failed. The flow advances to step S7, where the Roman character user name data from the user name registration section 61 and the Roman character warning message from the warning message area 64 are read out, and the name and warning message data are combined, for example, "Mr.-san was input incorrectly." and sends it to the sound generation circuit 8. The voice generation circuit 8 synthesizes voice signals in accordance with the synthesized message, and the speaker 9 outputs the voice ``Mr. erroneous human power.''

This meant that the user was warned by name,
I can clearly identify my own warning among many warning tones.

In addition, if the key force is fast, the key force advances considerably while uttering 0.However, in step S7, the synthesized message is only sent to the voice generation circuit 8, so the processing of the subsequent key force is hindered. There is no.

Also, if you don't like being told ``Mr. ~ is an incorrect input °°'', you may say only the name ``Mr. ~°°''.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, if, for example, a mistake in human effort (wrong spelling in Roman letters) occurs, a voice warning is given by name, so that the human effort after the warning is reliably stopped and unnecessary dictionary work is avoided. It suppresses pulling work and is highly effective in terms of time and labor.
